    My Attorney William Kahn recommend Attorney Joel Seidel. I've been with Bill over a decade. If…read morethis is a recommendation he must be business, good and fair.

    I retained Joel Seidel in October 2023 for a family law trial scheduled for February 2024 involving…read morecomplex financial and business valuation issues. Before retaining him, I specifically explained that my priorities were pursuing financial discovery, valuation of my ex husband's medical corporation, hidden income concerns, and a Family Code §2640 reimbursement claim exceeding $126,000. I was assured that these issues would be aggressively pursued and that his office had substantial experience handling high conflict financial family law litigation. I then spent months gathering and providing detailed financial documentation to his office, including bank statements, contracts, financial records, and evidence I believed demonstrated financial concealment and inconsistencies involving my ex husband's business operations. Despite this, meaningful discovery efforts did not begin until very late in the case. Subpoenas and discovery were initiated only shortly before the February 2024 trial date, leaving little time for proper follow through or enforcement. As trial approached, I became increasingly concerned that the case was not prepared for trial despite having retained counsel months earlier. Instead of moving aggressively forward with litigation, pressure shifted heavily toward settlement and Mandatory Settlement Conference discussions immediately before trial. Mr. Seidel repeatedly expressed skepticism that my ex husband's medical corporation had measurable value and characterized it more like a "loan out corporation" rather than a profitable medical business with enterprise goodwill and ongoing contract relationships. Yet the court later reserved jurisdiction over business valuation post judgment and moved toward appointment of an Evidence Code §730 neutral valuation expert. He also advised that my §2640 reimbursement claim was likely not provable despite my possession of checks and written documentation supporting the separate property contributions. I later prevailed on that claim at trial and was awarded reimbursement exceeding $126,000. One of the most difficult aspects of this experience was the repeated feeling that my concerns regarding financial concealment and economic abuse were not being taken seriously despite the amount of documentation I was providing. I have since come to believe many women experience what I call the "Cassandra Effect" in family law litigation: women raise concerns regarding hidden income, financial manipulation, coercive financial behavior, or business irregularities, but are treated as emotional or unrealistic until evidence later confirms many of those concerns. Ultimately, I achieved significantly better results at trial than what I had been repeatedly told was realistic or likely achievable. My experience with Joel Seidel left me feeling unheard, poorly advised, and pressured toward settlement despite substantial unresolved financial issues. If your case involves complex business valuation issues, hidden income concerns, financial manipulation, or economic abuse dynamics, I would strongly encourage you to carefully evaluate whether this attorney is the right fit for your case.

    Ms. Jennifer Morales is the most proactive attorney I have ever worked with. From the very…read morebeginning, she made me feel confident, supported, and secure in her ability to handle my case. She not only guided me through the legal process but also helped make an incredibly difficult family situation much easier to navigate. The care, dedication, and effort she puts into every aspect of her work are truly remarkable. It's clear that she is highly knowledgeable, genuinely cares about her clients, and is committed to achieving the best possible outcome. Thanks to Ms. Morales, I was awarded sole legal and physical custody of my daughter, and I will always be grateful for everything she did for my family. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone in need of a family law attorney. If you're looking for someone who will fight tirelessly for you, keep you informed every step of the way, and work relentlessly to get the best possible result, Ms. Jennifer Morales is the attorney you want on your side.

    I'm not sure what the negative review was about yesterday, because Jennifer gave fast, friendly,…read moreclear, direct, and extremely helpful answers to my wife Kristina's important and complicated questions this afternoon (with $16K on the line) in a free phone consultation! Jennifer guided her on the best route to take (the simple solution!) instantly and confidently after 2 different AI platforms, multiple court clerks, help desk personnel, and even a few lawyers were unable to speak authoritatively on the subjects. That 5-minute phone call was hands down -- by far -- the best legal experience we've ever had. Jennifer is obviously a true expert in her field, and she has absolutely earned all the family law business for us, our family, and our friends from now on. I wouldn't even consider wasting my time looking anywhere else after today!

    I needed help with my divorce (that I was filing myself, without a lawyer). Not an attorney's help,…read moreas it was no-contest divorce, but someone to help me file all my forms correctly. The Court kept on refusing the forms we were submitting for one reason or another and we were stuck. It was frustrating and time-consuming: I was losing a lot of time trying to figure out why they were refusing the forms even after I went several times to the Court's self-help desk for help. I decided to hire Carla and I am really happy I did. Everything went smoothly and we could sign all the forms electronically. She then filed everything with the Court, always keeping us informed of what was happening which was reassuring. Thanks to Carla, our divorce was finally approved without delay, in a matter of days, and without spending a fortune. I can't thank her enough for her efficiency, professionalism, and kindness.
